Title: The Arts of Medieval Europe
Description: This course explores key monuments of medieval art in Europe from c. 400 until 1350, with a specific focus on art and architecture in medieval Italy. We will concentrate on historical, functional, and aesthetical aspects that lead to the creation of single monuments and art works. Emphasis is given to the analysis of "sacred space" by means of architecture, painted and sculptural decoration, as well as ritual performances. The course will familiarize students with the conceptual character of medieval art and architecture, various topics of Christian iconography, and to the historiographic aspects of the discipline.
Prerequisites: One of the following: ART 100, ART 101, any ART 200-level course or by permission.
Professors: Nino Zchomelidse
